The cocky little skipper’, fresh from a three-game sweep over the I second place Giants, observed that his atomic bums were 12Me gsftnes in front in what is quaintly called .- B race in the National leagiie. That margin didn't impress him Dearly as much as the fact that the 36 more wins would put his hoys beyond the reach of everybody except their world series opponents. The Dodgers got some bad baseball put of their systems yesterday in the 6; to 5 finale victory over the Giants In which Roy Campanella’s second homer in the eighth, gave them their victory. There were 24 walks In the game, a new National league record as Brooklyn pitchers put op 15 batters and the Giants nine. Monte Irvin and Dave Williams hit Giant homers. ;J In the American league, the Yankees bounced back into a first; plaice tie with Cleveland! after surrendering the lead for one day., J A 6 to 4 victory over Washington \ in whic|) there were three unearned run? in the eighth on sloppy fielding by Gil Coan, put the Yankees back. Cleveland was idle while third place’Boston dropped a 6 to 1 5 game to* the Athletics, then ended a five-game losing j streak with a 5 to 3 win in thei nightcap.

They left air out of the tires, drained 15 gallons of gasoline from the tank, poured grease ( in the radiator.
